PXE Boot via USB-->Ethernet Adapter Lenovo 13e.

I have a Lenovo 13e machine. It does not have a Ethernet port built in. So I am using a USB Adapter. I am trying to register the machine and when I do it freezes up on a black screen. I am not sure what the issue is. Is there some sort of BIOS Setting for this. It is able to reach the FOG menu fine though.

@imagingmaster21 Is this a thinkpad or a yoga? If you can, I’d like to have the full model number. Also, I need to know the model of the USB adapter you’re using - who makes it, and preferably a link to where it’s sold.

So I know I have to change the #option 67 option bootfile-name to the ones we are trying, but in my dhcp file screenshot I attached do I also have to change it in the class’s file names as well. I am guessing yes, but I want to check with you.

I tried doing it with just the USB-Ethernet Adapter and tried pushing a capture task out to it and it gets stuck at ‘int.xz…ok’. I then tried it with both of the MAC address in host registration and still the same result. If I cancel the tasks I am still able to get to the FOG Menu.

@imagingmaster21 Try both. I don’t really remember exactly - but you can assign multiple MACs to a host via the web GUI. I think in order to use the USB NIC with more than one host, it has to be added to an ignore list in FOG Configuration.

@imagingmaster21 If I remember right, that’s how you need to do it. You’d create a host but give it the WiFi MAC, and put your USB NIC into the ignore list in FOG Configuration -> FOG Settings. Or something like that.
